Acrylic Workshop at Coos Art Museum

Posted by OCVA/ February 19, 2015

Embark on a journey into the fun and rewarding world of acrylic painting with Allen (Tony) Adams at Coos Art Museum. This six-week, adults only Acrylic Workshop will take place Thursdays, January 15, 22, 29, February 5, 12, 19, 2015 from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m.

The Acrylic Workshop with Allen (Tony) Adams provides an introduction to acrylics, painting techniques and familiarizes both the beginning artist and artists already using acrylics in the preparation of the painting surface, application of the medium, and selecting a palette. Each session will consist of a short painting demonstration by the instructor followed by a question and answer period. The remainder of each session will be spent with students working on their own paintings, during which time Tony will work one-on-one with each student sharing helpful information he has gained in 60 years of painting in both commercial and fine arts.

Recognized as one of the area’s premier realist painters, Allen (Tony) Adams’ qualifications include time spent as a screen cartoonist at Walt Disney Studios and 30 years as an illustrator and graphic designer at General Dynamics Corp.
